Is there a reason a surgeon would suggest a small implant?

Asked By:tee_1010 in New York, New York

I’m scheduled for a breast augmentation soon. The surgeon suggested a 255cc - 295cc round gummy implant. I’m a deflated A-B cup now after having children. I’m worried anything under 300cc will not give me the full C cup I want. I have curvy hips and want my top body to match my curves for more of an hour glass shape. Is there a reason a surgeon would suggest a small implant?
